We wish. We have several college visits to make that are requiring flights to different locations. We are trying, once again, to work in even a 3 day trip to the beach. :roll:
I enjoyed both of my girls touring schools. It is one of the best things that you can do! Keep us updated! I think FSU would have a lot of benefits!!!What excitement!!!I enjoyed both of my girls touring schools. It is one of the best things that you can do! Keep us updated!

...back when we did this, my Daddy said..."I think y'all are paying more to look at colleges that I did on your tuition!" My how things have changed...and how small the world became.No kidding. Mr. JR is about to have a stroke, worrying how we're going to pay. Even in-state UofI is $24K/yr. (which doesn't fit his criteria). Collin's looking at $48K currently....back when we did this, my Daddy said..."I think y'all are paying more to look at colleges that I did on your tuition!"

And in 2 years, who knows. But when you check out all the other prospective schools, they're ALL about the same No kidding. Mr. JR is about to have a stroke, worrying how we're going to pay.

Oh, how we're hoping for scholarships at this stage of the game.
We are trying to learn to convince ourselves of this. In the meantime, the research has been fun.Mr. IWIWT has a come-apart every year when the financial aid package comes!Whatever it costs, if it is the right school, it is sooooo worth it! Living in a small town, my children were not exposed to a variety of people, lifestlyes, opportunites, etc. The college they chose gave them all thoses things and so much more. While some days it is a struggle, we would not have it any other way.
A friend was surprised that our girls did not go the state college, full scholarhship route....costs nothing. Our point of view is that it is an investment that can never be lost.
